INGREDIENT NOTES

MILK

  • Use regular skim milk or unsweetened almond milk to add creaminess without adding points or calories. Go for oat milk as an option.

CINNAMON AND VANILLA ESSENCE

  • The addition of cinnamon powder and vanilla essence gives a classic French toast flavor. It will be loved by all.

TORTILLA

  • Choose the low-carb tortillas from the trusted brands like Ole Xtreme Wellness or Mission Carb Balance. These tortillas are high in fiber and soft like bread with minimal points.

SWEETENER

  • Sweeten the dipping batter with the addition of a sweetener with no calories, such as erythritol, stevia, or monk fruit, without increasing a single point.

EGGS

  • The eggs are the star ingredients responsible for the flavor added custardy coating, which is the main theme of the French toasts. You may use only egg whites to lower the points further.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Mix eggs, salt, milk, cinnamon powder, vanilla essence, and sweetener in a bowl till well combined.
  2. Grease a griddle or skillet(nonstick) lightly over medium flame.
  3. Dip a tortilla properly in the egg batter.
  4. Shift that soaked tortilla to the heated griddle.
  5. Cook for about 2-3 minutes each side or till the egg coating cooks, giving you a beautiful golden color.
  6. Then, dish it out and similarly make another French toast.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

  • Serve your WW Tortilla French Toast plain by rolling, folding, cutting into triangles, or with;
  • Dusting of cinnamon sugar
  • Chocolate or caramel syrup(sugar-free)
  • Plain powdered sweetener
  • Fresh fruits
  • Chopped nuts
  • Low-fat cream

TIPS

  • Be alert while dipping the tortillas in the batter. If you don’t dip properly, the tortilla will not get a proper coat. If you leave it more than half a minute in the batter, it will tear up into pieces by being too soggy.
  • The addition of a tiny pinch of nutmeg will give a sharper and richer flavor to the French toast batter.

STORAGE DIRECTIONS

FRIDGE

  • Pack the remainder of the tortilla French toast in a tightly locked container. Keep them safe in the fridge or about two days.

FREEZER

  • Pile up the cooked and cooled tortillas with a parchment liner in between each one of them and keep them all in the freezer-friendly bag. Now they are all safe to reeze for 60-70 days.

REHEATING

  • Place the frozen or chilled tortilla French toast on a heated griddle till it warms up and regains its crispness.

FAQs

Can I make them extra fluffy?

  • To achieve the light and fluffy French toast, beat the eggs well before dipping the tortilla into the mixture.

Will corn tortillas work in place of flour tortillas?

  • No, corn tortillas are high in carbs and break upon soaking. They won’t even give that significant soft French toast texture. So, use low-carb flour-based tortilla.

Can I make it rich in proteins?

  • Yes, mix a teaspoon of unflavored or vanilla-flavored protein powder to boost the protein content as well.
